Many place orders "by eye" — a little higher or lower, just to make it happen.
The result is an entry "in the air", slippage, and the price turning against the position.
Remember:
🔷 Stop Limit — the best tool.
🔷 Place your order 1 cent above/below the level, not randomly.
🔷 This way, you reduce risk, get a more accurate entry, and maintain control over the trade.
If the level is really strong — it’s acceptable to widen the stop, but only if it is hidden behind this level, and not sitting in "emptiness".
💡 A little discipline = serious savings.
